Qleisure Karting Championship Round 3

The Qleisure Kids Karting Championship Round 3 took place on the 9th of December and once again we had some very exciting racing to watch.

The track was damp throughout the day with some sections of the track proving very difficult to keep a tight line. Some drivers found this out the hard way as it made any outside over taking manoeuvres close to impossible. We had a race incident in one of the grand finals as 2 karts went into a bend side by side and in the wet conditions there was only going to be a good outcome for the driver on the inside line.

All in all the conditions tested everyone but still some fantastic racing was had by all especially in the senior grand final on the very last 2 seconds of the race. As first place Callum Jee was battling throughout the race with second place Tom Mottram, both drivers had no idea that 3rd place Zephan Powell was sitting comfortably just waiting for a gap to open. Zephans patience payed off and right on the finish line of the race both Tom and Callum pushed into each other slowing each other down and opening a big enough gap for Zephan to cruise past and take first place. Highly entertaining for everyone watching but also a lesson to be leaned for both Tom and Callum.
